What's the difference between sharing a note and sending a copy?
You might be wondering what the difference between sharing your note and sending a copy is.
When you use the Share Note option, you're actually giving people access to your own notes. You send an invitation that lets other users view the note you shared and see any changes you make as soon as they happen. If you choose to do so, you can also allow them to edit that note. You can only use this option with any notes you have stored on iCloud.
Sending a copy, on the other hand, lets you share just that: a copy of the text in a specific note. The receiver will only have access to the copied text you send and they won't be able to make any changes to the original note. In addition, in the Send a Copy option is where you'll find the option to print your note from your iPhone or iPad.
